    Abstract: Developing the communicative competence in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) requires the use of different strategies including the implementation of critical thinking. However, creating a learning environment that promotes critical thinking and engages the learners in communicative tasks in the EFL classroom is a challenging task for teachers. Accordingly, this article explores the constraints faced by language teachers at Bejaia University when implementing critical thinking skills to develop the communicative competence of their students. To achieve this purpose, an online survey questionnaire was conducted among the EFL teachers. The results showed which constraints do the teachers face to implement critical thinking in their classes namely the lack of a specific coaching about how to teach critical thinking in order to acquire more knowledge and methodology , lack in the materials that support it, in addition to the fact that learners lack critical thinking abilities.
